- Eugene_Andolsek abstract "Eugene Andolsek (1921–2008) was an American artistic draughtsman. Andolsek was born in Adrian, West Virginia, USA. His mother's homemade quilts and crochet pieces became principal influences for his drawings. In 1953 Andolsek became a stenographer for the Rock Island Railroad. He spent almost every evening for the next fifty years drawing intricately patterned pieces, using basic drawing instruments and graph paper, as a means of diverting his thoughts from worrying about work. He was soon creating abstract compositions of remarkable geometric and chromatic complexity and produced several thousand kaleidoscopic designs. After being made redundant, Andolsek developed an irreversible eye disorder and became almost blind, provoking him to consider suicide. His cousin intervened by moving him to a home and rescued his drawings which, upon being seen by the home's owners, were shown to an administrator at Pittsburgh's Andy Warhol Museum, who in turn showed them to Brooke Davis Anderson of the American Folk Art Museum. Anderson included some of the work in a group show at AFAM called \"Obsessive Drawing\" in 2005. Andolsek's first solo show was in March 2006 at American Primitive Gallery. He had another exhibition there in 2008, before he died of pneumonia and sepsis on November 17th. of that year.".
